Default TPMS for BBS LM079

Can anyone recommend a TPMS that would fit the smaller 8mm diameter hole in my new set of BBS LM? I understand that the OEM Lexus are 11.3, but I am having trouble finding a solution. BBS USA gave me a lot of useful information, but unable to recommend a product since making a new hole is impossible due to it being at a slant.

Will a TPMS adapter work?

I am not sure due to the slant. Could you link one so I could see what you are talking about exactly?

Amazon Amazon

I forgot how mine are mounted on my LMs, but I don't recall needing adapters.

I will have to look around to see. These BBS LM were designed in 1994 before any TPMS technology.
